I have a 96 965 which is used hard. I live many miles up a dirt road and use the car for hauling stuff and towing. It's not the utility vehicle that my 245 was but it's what I've got. It has IRS/transverse leaf spring and I want to strengthen the load-carrying capacity. Were Nivomats ever fitted to this style? It currently has worn out Sachs shocks which need replacement and self-levelers make sense. If yes, can I retrofit Nivomats? If no, are there sturdy shocks available...Monroe Reflex seems to be the best rated.

Thanks
